The best part about going to Zimm's is the clientele. We enjoy a stylish and sophisticated crowd of all ages and many have been included in a select group known as the Zimm's family. If you love Zimm's as much as most you too can become a member. Our staff is trained to receive you as if you were a guest in their home. You should expect to be welcomed when you enter and to be told thank you and have a safe drive home when you leave. Thank you for your interest and please stop by for a drink soon!

In Short – First-time visitors may think they've wandered into some tweedy British social club by mistake--leather wingbacks abound; the music is tasteful, the ambience sedate. Victorian divans and chairs encircle candle-illuminated tables. Sky-high drink prices keep the hoi polloi out. This isn't just a place for grown-ups, but grown-ups who know whether their martini is shaken or stirred and whether the brandy snifter has been properly warmed. Still, it's a godsend for those sick of pubs, sports bars and meat markets.

Respect for customers...what a concept!
by racerxhou
I've been in Houston for a long time and pretty much been to most hotspots but I can't believe I never checked this place out. Usually when I go to a yuppie/upscale bar, I expect the D-Bag bouncer, fake line at the door, attitude, etc. With Zimm's, the Door guy actually said "Welcome to Zimm's, enjoy your evening". I was shocked! A popular place that actually wants business! Their chocolate Martini's were awsome and very strong (hey straight guys can drink them too), but I think they were $12 each. When we left, we were even told "thank you for coming". It's a simple concept but believe me I will come there again. Who needs Washington?
- Pros: Polite doorman, bartenders,
- Cons: pricey

I LOVE THE MUSIC IN THIS LOUNGE. THE DECOR IS SEDUCTIVE AND STYLISH. I DID LEARN THE HARD WAY THAT ON THE WEEKENDS A STYLISH DRESSCODE IS STRICTLY ENFORCED. THAT'S OK WITH ME BECAUSE THE GUYS LOOK HOT. THE BARTENDER TOLD ME THE BAR HAD BEEN THERE FOR 15 YEARS AND HAD ALWAYS BEEN UPSCALE. CALL FOR RESERVATIONS IF YOU HAVE A GROUP SO YOUR EVENING CAN BE ORGANIZED. I LIKE TO GO TO A LOT OF BARS BUT ZIMMS IS MY FAVORITE.
- Pros: CLIENTS ARE TOLD THANK YOU AND GREAT MUSIC
- Cons: NOT AN AFTER HOURS BAR --HINT HINT
